Dear GNOME Support Team:

Recently, we noticed that the rsync process of GNOME Mirror returns
error. According to the log files, there might be some file permission
errors in your servers. Here are the log outputs:

> rsync: send_files failed to open
"/teams/releng/3.13.3/gnome-apps-3.13.3.modules" (in gnomeftp):
Permission denied (13)
> rsync: send_files failed to open
"/teams/releng/3.13.3/gnome-suites-core-3.13.3.modules" (in gnomeftp):
Permission denied (13)
> rsync: send_files failed to open
"/teams/releng/3.13.3/gnome-suites-core-deps-3.13.3.modules" (in
gnomeftp): Permission denied (13)
> rsync: send_files failed to open
"/teams/releng/3.13.3/gnome-sysdeps-3.13.3.modules" (in gnomeftp):
Permission denied (13)
> rsync: send_files failed to open
"/teams/releng/3.13.3/sample-tarball.jhbuildrc" (in gnomeftp):
Permission denied (13)
> rsync: send_files failed to open "/teams/releng/3.13.3/versions" (in
gnomeftp): Permission denied (13)

Could you please check these files?

Also, rsync complains about unsafe symlink:

> ignoring unsafe symlink
"bindings/2.5/2.5.1/C++/gnome-vfsmm-2.5.0.tar.gz" ->
"/ftp/pub/GNOME/sources/gnome-vfsmm/2.5/gnome-vfsmm-2.5.0.tar.gz"

Could you please use relative symbolic link instead of absolute ones?

Thanks!
